Kilinga, a boutique, family-owned Mexican spirits label, has announced the launch of its award-winning Bacanora agave spirit in the United States. Interestingly, the new launch marks the first time that this specific spirit -- Bacanora, which is native to Sonora, Mexico -- has ever been sold in America.
To make the tequila-like spirit, Kalinga harvests its agave at various stages of maturation, which makes each batch of their Bacanora unique. Moreover, every bottle of Bacanora is signed by Kilinga's Founder, Maestro Bacanorero Rodrigo, and features eye-catching packaging inspired by the Sonora desert.
“Kilinga speaks to the grandeur of the Sonoran desert,” says Kilinga Bacanora Founder Rodrigo Bojorquez Bours. “We wanted to create a smooth, bright Bacanora that evokes the beauty of the region to agave aficionados everywhere.”
